I think we get to drive through that on our way up there tomorrow. Good thing I just waxed and put a coat of RainX on the Supra.

Whole area got a good soaking, hope everyone is bringing spare shoes if we go for a hike. It'll be wet like that time we hiked the dells and caught the snapping turtle.

So good news/bad news.

Good: Guac is made.
Bad: 2 of 4 avocados were ****. But I had already chopped up the peppers, onion, tomato and added the first two when I found the last two were bad. So there's 4 avocado's worth of pepper in with 2 avocado. If anyone would like to bring along 2 good ones I could mix them into the batch to mellow it out or we can have a small but very hot batch.

I usually have some, but I'm all out.

I'll see if I can find a good one at Walmart in Morris.

I'm in Joliet waiting on the BRZ, he needs a turbo I guess.

Gas is cheap, like always. Park must be busy, traffic is insane. Scratch that, people just collecting money.

To my disbelief, after our '' spirited drive'' from hiking and two trips up and down 71. The four was a bit thirsty... 4.6 gallons in 61 miles thirsty!

Guess I should share my surprise as well. 22.6 mpg despite the highway pulls. Looks like the Poopra wasn't too thirsty today after all.

I'm no good with a camera. The camera does all the hard work.

I WIN!

886.6 miles & 53.88 gallons of oil = 16.46mpg
I'm glad I made it out to this meet , its always great seeing other celica enthusiasts thumbsup.gif

I was also privileged enough to sit in a Supra and be in the presence of a GT4, couldn't ask for more than that. Already looking forward to a spring meet!



This has to be one of my favorite photos of a celica ever
